Abstract The manual is intended to expand understanding of irrigated agriculture-water quality relationships to a broad group, including water quality interests, water resource interests, and agricultural field technicians. Information on collecting pertinent information on the irrigation system, sampling techniques, and evaluation techniques for determining the water quality impacts of return flows, combined with beneficial use aspects allow irrigation to be put into perspective with other elements of a water quality plan. Development of best management practices (BMP's) incorporate this water quality information plus information on the various agricultural practices. Understanding of local conditions affecting BMP's can be developed within the evaluation framework. Traditional and recently developed irrigation practices are developed and evaluated in terms of use, pollutant loading pathways, cost, and effectiveness. Pollutants are discussed in terms of occurrence in nature, loading mechanisms, evaluation techniques, and effect upon beneficial use.
